New plans are underway to make Swansea Market yet more welcoming to shoppers and traders.
Hot on the heels of the hugely successful Market Garden and the provision of toilet facilities, the next mission is to improve the external entrances on Oxford Street, Whitewalls and Union Street. The focus is on making the Market more visible on the street and providing a welcoming first impression fitting of an award-winning market.
Following a robust procurement process, Tangent Partnership Ltd have been appointed as the successful contractor to deliver this project. Tangent worked with the Market to deliver the fantastic Market Garden and have certainly hit the ground running with this new challenge.
At this stage of the project, 3 different entrance designs have been developed and a consultation has taken place with the public and stakeholders to collect their views and note their chosen option.
Next steps
The Project Team will now assess the feedback received to identify the overall preferred design and make the appropriate changes where feasible.
This will allow a planning application to be prepared, a programme of works finalised and contracts to be tendered and costs confirmed for each part of the scheme.
As the project progresses, you will be able to find updates here or by following us on Facebook, Instagram and X.
